My husband and I have spent a fair amount of time in the Caribbean, especially the little island of Bequia. While there, we were introduced to coconut chips, which were served like a munchy mix during happy hour. A bit different, but they can be addictive. A hammer is helpful to crack open the baked coconut.

You could include carob chips or whatever kind of chips your kids like. The dried fruit version is yummy as well!

Tips:

  • Choose fresh coconut: Fresh coconut will give you the best flavor and texture for your chips. Look for coconuts that are heavy for their size and have a smooth, unblemished shell.
  • Slice the coconut thinly: The thinner you slice the coconut, the crispier your chips will be. Use a sharp knife or a mandoline to get even slices.
  • Coat the coconut in oil and sweetener: This will help the chips to brown and caramelize in the oven. You can use any type of oil you like, but coconut oil will give your chips a more pronounced coconut flavor.
  • Bake the chips at a low temperature: This will help them to dry out and crisp up without burning. Bake the chips for about 1 hour, or until they are golden brown.
  • Let the chips cool completely before storing: The chips will continue to crisp up as they cool. Store the chips in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

Baked coconut chips are a delicious and healthy snack that are easy to make at home. They are a good source of fiber, healthy fats, and minerals. You can enjoy them on their own, or you can add them to trail mix, yogurt, or baked goods. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make your own delicious baked coconut chips.
